OVEN-BURNER FOB GAS-EANGFIS.

Application led October 20, 1917.

To all whom t may concern:

Be it known that l, CLARENCE V. ROBERTS, a citizen of the United States, residing in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have invented certain Improvements in Oven-Burners :tor Gas-Ranges, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to certain improvements in burners located in the ovens ci gas ranges.

One object of my invention is to make the burner in two parts, each having an igniting extension, the two extensions being located side by side so that when one. is ignited the other can be ignited by simply turning on a gas cock.

A further object of the invention is to make this combined burner in a single casting.

ln the accompanying drawings:

Figure 1 is a plan view of a portion of a gas range illustrating my improved burner;

Fig. 2 is a detached sectional plan view of the burner;

Fig. 3 is a sectional view on the line 3 3, Fig. 2;

Fig. 4 is a sectional view on the line 4 4, Fig. 2;

Fig. 5 1s a sectional view on the line 5-5, Fig. 2;

Fig. 6 1s a sectional view on the line @-6, Fig. 2, and

Fig. 7 is a view of a modiication.

Referring to the drawings, 1 is the oven of an ordinary gas range. 2 is the door, which can be hung in any suitable manner. l have shown the oven by dotted lines so as to illustrate the position or the burner in the oven. 8 is the burner made in a single casting and having two sections a and 5 separated by partitions 6 and 7. @ne section has a nipple S which is connected to a pipe 9 and the other section has :a nipple S:L which is connected to a pipe 10. 11 is a gas supply pipe and 12 is a gas cock through which gas is admitted to supply thepipe 9. At the end of the burner 3 opposite the gas supply pipe is an extension 14 leading to the front of the oven, in the present instance. The partition 7 of the burner is Specification of Letters Eatent.

carried through the length of this eXtension, so as to make two igniting chambers l5 and 16, as clearly shown in Figs. 2 and 3. in the walls or" each oic these chambers perforations 17, and in the longitudinal burners a and 5L of the burner 3 are two sets of perforations 18, as shown in Fig. 4, and in the transverse portions LP and 4f' are perforations 19, Figs. 5 and 6, but it will be understood that the perforations in the burner may be varied, as desired, depending considerably upon the construction of the gas range and its oven, and also on the relative position of the two longitudinal portions ta and 5a.

lt will be noticed that the igniting extensions o't the burner are arranged side by side so that when both gas cocks are turned on a single match will simultaneously ignite the gas escaping from both burners, but, if it be desired to use only one section of the burner then one gas cock is turned and the match is applied at the same point, but only the gas escaping from one-halt1 of the burner will be ignited.

lf it be desired to use the other half of the burner at any time during the baking to increase the heat, all that is necessary is to turn on the other gas cock and the gas escaping from the igniting extension of the burner will be ignited by the burning gas at the other entension so that a second application of a match is unnecessary.

ln some instances, a triple burner may be used by increasing the sections and providing a third partition, as shown in Fig, 7, 7a being one partition between the section 5b and a central section 5d, and 7b being a partition seoarating the section 5d from the section and the openings in the igniting extensions are such that the flame from the two side chambers would be directed toward the center so that any one of the burners could be first ignited and either one, or both, of the other two burners could be ignited from the first burner.
